Resilience FORGE

FORGE provides venture resources throughout Arizona with three locations on the main University of Arizona campus in Tucson and locations in downtown Tucson, Phoenix and Yuma. 

Our Resilience FORGE location is located on the Tucson Campus in ENR2 Room S120A. Resilience FORGE is a partnership between FORGE and the Arizona Institute for Resilient Environments and Societies.  At Resilience FORGE we work with students, faculty, staff, and community members to explore ideas to bring solutions to environmental and sustainability-related problems.  Through connecting with like-minded others and accessing resources, tools, mentors, and opportunities individuals can chart their path to tackling these big challenges.  Our student leaders, staff, and mentors are available during designated hours or by appointment to do individual or group consultations. Walk-ins always welcome!

Our dedicated Mentor in Residence at Resilience FORGE is Pat Hager.  Pat worked as a research scientist at the 3M Corporation in St. Paul, Minnesota for 30 years.  He served chiefly as a product and process development scientist in 4 different verticals (retail, industrial, automotive, and healthcare) to create new products and markets.  Pat held numerous technical leadership roles in 3M and retired as a Corporate Scientist in 2017.  Pat’s background includes an undergraduate degree in Chemistry and PhD in Polymer Science from the Institute of Polymer Science & Engineering in Akron, Ohio.
